In fact, we know that Zelda used to give you the light medallion when you meet her: https://t.co/K518iSTKeQ
Oh, actually, the damage charts contain entries for four out of six magic spells - only Forest/Wind (Farore's Wind) and Spirit/Soul (Nayru's Love) are missing.

Seems that the other four were all meant to be offensive spells, but they cut things down and kept only Din's Fire. pic.twitter.com/G2lr5J22x7
But, based on internal filenames (Magic_Dark) and the medallion design, I believe it had the visual effect of Nayru's Love (albeit maybe not in blue).

This is the same effect as a spell in Zelda II, but way more complicated to implement in a 3D game. I doubt they got very far with implementing it.

(By the way, again going by internal names, the Soul medallion SFX was repurposed for Nayru's Love. So that spell was created from the pieces of multiple other cut ones.)
Heart pieces come in groups of 8 instead of 4.


Apparently in OoT one was a nickname for the other.
(Then, oddly, BotW reused the name as an entirely different, icy mountain. I guess things like that happen in real life too.)

I don't think you had any ocarina as child at this point in development, so I guess her Letter was used as a key for more guards?
This is so fascinating. It seems to be bits of the story before it was rewritten. Zelda didn't know how to enter the ToT and had to look it up in the library while Link found the 2 stones. Playing the prelude of light with the stones would let you enter. Cont...

There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.

Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.
Be aware, the images the #farright are sharing in the hopes of starting a race war, are not of the SPAR employee that was punched. They\u2019re older photos of a Everton fan. Be aware of the information you\u2019re sharing and that it may be false. Always #factcheck #GeorgeNkencho pic.twitter.com/4c9w4CMk5h

Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.
There is a concerted effort in far-right Telegram groups to try and incite violence on street by targetting people for racist online abuse following the killing of George Nkencho

This follows on and is part of a misinformation campaign to polarise communities at this time.
The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
